Zucchini-Banana Squares ~ Goat on the Loose
While I was out getting a few groceries, my 17 year-old daughter made Zucchini-Banana Squares. I had quite a bit of zucchini that I harvested yesterday morning, and had a few soft bananas. Luckily, I had one bag of mini-chocolate chips too. These bars are made with flaxseed or wheat germ, and are fairly healthy. The recipe comes from Heart Healthy Living, and is linked below. We do buy organic/non-gmo canola oil as well. I have not made these with applesauce yet, but may try it before the summer is over. I do plan to freeze some shredded zucchini this year.
I also picked some green peppers for dinner, and made 3 batches of homemade mushroom soup (to make a chicken spaghetti favorite of ours), using our goat's milk.

A Little Bit of This ~ A Little Bit of That
Sunday the humidity was terrible here. Even so, I canned one batch of wild black raspberry jam, got caught up with laundry, garden work and even got dinner made before going to the movies with Son and the family.
This is a "grab a cup of java" kind of post. I beat my son up this morning. How? I have no idea. Ha ha!
We enjoyed our first green and wax beans this season at dinner too. Yum.
